Who knows, maybe the sign will catch more attention being upside down. They might actually get more people attending to the sign then before. Because it is hard to drive and turn your head upside down.

Is that “Dead End” sign supposed to be a symbolic allegory for Dan and Amazigirl’s progress in this strip? Could it be romantically related like “This relationship is going nowhere fast.” Or does it have something to do with putting this sign back where it belongs i.e. “This hatchet job is going nowhere fast” Or is the dead end sign more meant to be used as a literal device like “This street is going nowhere fast.”

It’s pretty astounding what goes unnoticed, sometimes. I’m not saying that I’m Captain Observant or anything – I mean, occasionally I read the comments and I go “GOD, how did I not notice that already?!” But other times, I read the comments and my reaction is more akin to yours. That was only a few strips ago!!

Superman did it – you cannot go back in time by flying very fast against the time zones (even if you do it very fast). John McClane fights on the wing of a taxi-ing airplane (the fans on the jet turbines should have sucked him in instantly) and he blows up the petrol tank of the aircraft by lighting a trail of petrol streaming from the same aircraft (the fire shouldn’t have been able to go upstream.

Actually it can go upstream. But it will be so slow at it, that anything moving faster than about good walking speed will usually get away. Which a starting plane actually does, if memory serves me right.

Of course if they keep hanging out like this, someone is going to catch on that Amazi-Girl cares for Danny, which will inevitably lead to Danny getting kidnapped so that someone can get Amazi-Girl to do something for the kidnappers.
